This classic solitaire ring features a 1.00 carat round brilliant cut diamond set in a polished platinum mounting. The round brilliant is the most optically engineered diamond shape, with 58 precisely angled facets designed to maximize light return, brilliance, and scintillation — delivering the iconic sparkle the cut is known for.

The center diamond carries a VVS2 (Very Very Slightly Included 2) clarity grade, placing it in the near-flawless tier of the GIA clarity scale. Inclusions at this level are extremely difficult to detect even under 10x magnification by a trained gemologist, and the diamond appears completely clean to the unaided eye. The E color grade is the second-highest classification on the GIA color scale, indicating an essentially colorless diamond in which any trace of body color is perceptible only to an expert gemologist using master comparison stones under controlled conditions.

The setting is crafted in platinum, a rare and naturally white precious metal that retains its luster without requiring rhodium plating over time. Platinum is denser and more durable than gold alloys, making it an ideal choice for securing a high-value center stone, and its hypoallergenic properties suit sensitive skin. The timeless solitaire design keeps full attention on the center diamond while allowing maximum light to enter the stone from every angle. Costco diamonds are accompanied by a GIA grading report providing independent third-party verification of all stated specifications.
